Answer:

Increasing amounts of defense spending.

Explanation:

One of the main reasons why the Soviet Union was in a bad economic situation in the late 1980s was because of the increasing amounts of money that it was spending on defense. A large part of the reason for this was the fact that the United States was also spending a large amount of money on defense, and the Soviet Union felt the need to keep up with it, as part of the legacy of the Cold War.

Answer:

In the Antebellum South, most slaves had difficult times characterized by poverty, very long-work hours doing demanding physical tasks, and psychological and physical abuse. They also had their families frequently torn apart.

Women, as recorded in Harriet Ann Jacobs work, were vicitms of sexual abuse on a constant basis.

Not all slaves were abused, and some slaves acquired relative wealth and status, but they were the minority. The vast majority of slaves had extremely difficult living conditions, and most importantly, they lacked the liberty that the US Constitution was supposed to guarantee.
